The Other Woman

By Daniel Silva

Description

#1 New York Times Bestseller

From Daniel Silva, the #1 New York Times–bestselling author, comes a modern masterpiece of espionage, love, and betrayal

She was his best-kept secret …

In an isolated village in the mountains of Andalusia, a mysterious Frenchwoman begins work on a dangerous memoir. It is the story of a man she once loved in the Beirut of old, and a child taken from her in treason’s name. The woman is the keeper of the Kremlin’s most closely guarded secret. Long ago, the KGB inserted a mole into the heart of the West—a mole who stands on the doorstep of ultimate power.

Only one man can unravel the conspiracy: Gabriel Allon, the legendary art restorer and assassin who serves as the chief of Israel’s vaunted secret intelligence service. Gabriel has battled the dark forces of the new Russia before, at great personal cost. Now he and the Russians will engage in a final epic showdown, with the fate of the postwar global order hanging in the balance.

Gabriel is lured into the hunt for the traitor after his most important asset inside Russian intelligence is brutally assassinated while trying to defect in Vienna. His quest for the truth will lead him backward in time, to the twentieth century’s greatest act of treason, and, finally, to a spellbinding climax along the banks of the Potomac River outside Washington that will leave readers breathless.

Fast as a bullet, hauntingly beautiful, and filled with stunning double-crosses and twists of plot, The Other Woman is a tour de force that proves once again that “of all those writing spy novels today, Daniel Silva is quite simply the best” (Kansas City Star).

Okay, this book has really good reviews, but why would I buy a book from an author who is new to me after only 13 pages? And not very compelling pages, at that. Sorry, but no thanks.

I wait patiently for each of his books over the years and devour them as they are released. I am never disappointed until the end when there is no more pages. This last one was a 5 star Michelin masterpiece. And now I sadly place it down amongst its great brothers and sisters on my all star shelf. Thank you again Daniel.

I had so looked forward to reading this latest Gabriel Allon adventure but I am sorry to say I am disappointed. I was not as captivated by this book as I have been by the other ones in this series. I was rather bored and this book is, for me, a disappointment. I do not understand the high praise a lot of the other reviewers gave. Perhaps my expectations were too high.

I have read them all - all of Daniel Silva’s books; and my
imagination is captured by Gabriel Allon’s epic journeys.
I sense in this latest book that Silva may be planning to
phase out our hero. I hope that isn’t so. Our hero should not continue to age - no older than 55, certainly. And he must
cease complaining about aches and pains. Hopefully, the
next in this encompassing series will cure the Israeli-
American-British rift. And art and travel must always play a
permanent role. All-engrossing, fast-paced, familiar
characters - always a great read.
